Tag: XLII

• The names you see with the eye power of a god of death are the names needed to kill that person. You will be able to see their names even if they aren’t listed in a family register.

Note: This rule is not included in the Viz version. The Japanese versions reuse this number (XLII, 42) in Volume 8.

• The use of the Death Note in the human world sometimes affects other humans’ lives or shortens their original life span, even though their names are not actually written in the Death Note itself. In these cases, no matter the cause, the god of death sees only the original lifespan and not the shortened lifespan.

Note: This number is duplicated in the Japanese version of volume 7.
